Not only do I believe all people can learn, I believe all people possess the capacity for greatness. I believe high expectations can inspire and challenge students to achieve their full potential. While I am sensitive to the inherent difference of learners, my students, I believe, have a responsibility to take an active role in their learning process. Working together, we will achieve great things!
